Customer Reviews SKECHERS Performance GOrun

Love these shoes. They are so light, have great arch support and are very comfortable right out of the box. I can't say enough about my love for Skechers and Zappos.

The best running shoe that I've ever purchased. Light, soft, support & great color. Has a high arch and that works great for me because I have a high arch. Can't wait to purchase another pair in another color.

Really cute shoes. I love the color, and it makes me happy just to wear them. They are a true fit; however, they don't have the same level of support my other Nike's have.

These shoes intrigued me because they had a very good review in Runningtimes.com. Skechers are not really in the forefront of shoes for competitive runners. I am a tried and true Saucony ProGrid person. I ordered these because admittedly, I love the coral color. I ordered them and they came the next day! I do not do more than two miles running, and wear them when I am out and about. They are very comfortable and cushiony.

Very lightweight and breathable. A little too loose for my comfort for my Jillian Michaels workout, but a good fit for a long run on the treadmill.

It's first time for me to buy sneakers from Skechers. I never like their design and never feel right when I try them on. By the way, this model is totally different. It feels great when I put them on. Very light but feel so much support. I went out and ran 6 miles easily. I love them and thinking to buy more. Highly recommend for this model.

Great running shoes! I have problems with my high arch and these were great! Comfortable and very light. The gorgeous teal color was a bonus. :)

I am not a runner I do not exercise as much as I should I put these sneakers on and they make me want to run. They are so light and airy I love taking walks in them they are making me walk further and more often.

My first pair of Skechers was the "Go Run" style. They were and are my favorite tennies!

I love these shoes! I can't believe how light they are and I am a no sock kind of girl, especially in the summer and these couldn't be more perfect. I could pretty must just repeat all other reviews but won't and just say, I really hope Skechers hangs on to this design because I think a lot of people are realizing how awesome these shoes are.

These are seriously the best running shoes I've ever had! I've always had trouble finding comfortable running shoes, and for the past 10+ years (since I started running in high school) I've never had a running shoe I really loved. I've run in shoes from Adidas, Asics, Brooks, Reebok, etc. - all the nice, high-quality brands - and have always had problems with blisters on the inside of both feet (depending on the shoe, I get blisters on the underside of my big toe, the ball of my foot, or the arch). These are my first pair of quasi-"minimalist" running shoes, so I don't know if that makes a difference in the fit or my experience - maybe I would have a positive experience with the Merrell barefoot shoes or something similar. I tried different shoes, different sizes, different socks, tying my shoes tighter or looser, and the only thing that worked consistently was taping my feet with athletic tape before running - which is just annoying and time consuming. I read so many reviews before purchasing these shoes, both from "professional" runners and from people just wearing them for errands and an occasional jog. Given the overwhelmingly positive reviews, I thought I'd give them a try - though I didn't have high hopes! However, these shoes were perfect right out of the box. The elastic in the back grips the heel nicely, the shoe itself is tight and fitted (but not too tight) and the toe box is large enough to be comfortable when running (though given the width, I don't know if these would be the best shoes for someone with narrow feet - I ordered the medium width and was surprised at the amount of space around the toes). Best of all, no blisters! I started out with shorter runs to break them in, and the longest I've done so far is about 4.5 miles - but still no problems. I've run just about every day since I got them - approximately 2 weeks ago - so probably have 30-40 miles on them at this point. The shoes are incredibly comfortable and provide great traction, padding, protection. As for the "midfoot strike" required by these shoes - I haven't found it to be problematic or uncomfortable. I do notice a little more soreness in my calves after I run, but nothing too concerning. They're a little weird to walk in and I don't think they'd be my go-to shoes for running errands or just walking around, but they're great for running. With respect to sizing, I'm usually a 6, sometimes 6.5 in regular shoes, but always size up to a 6.5 in running shoes. I ordered these in both a 6 and 6.5 since I've gotten other non-running Skechers shoes in a 6, and found the 6 a little too small - so I would say, buy the same size as your normal running shoe size.

These are SERIOUSLY the best running shoes I've ever had!! I've always had trouble finding comfortable running shoes, and for the past 10+ years (since I started running in high school) I've never had a running shoe I really loved.

Also, the price on Amazon can't be beat!

Love these shoes -- have 2 pairs. I have arthritis in my toes and plantar fasciitis and with these shoes I have no pain. They are very lightweight, breathe well and are cute too. They have excellent arch support and take the pressure off the toes and heel. Highly recommend them.

My early birthday present from my wonderful hubby. I've never felt a shoe so comfortable. It feels like hugs and kisses, sunshine and rainbows. I just love these shoes! Did I mention I love these shoes? Can't wait to get back in the gym. Heck, I may just sleep in them tonight! By the way, these are awesome shoes! Okay, I'm done.

This is probably the 2nd time I have used Zappos. I like the return policy and the quick shipping. I have been very pleased with the website. I would recommend it to others.

These are great shoes. They are lightweight, but very supportive. I am just getting back to working with a trainer after a long illness. My balance is poor. My old heavy running shoes were not helping. I love these. I even dared to wear without sock and had no hot spots.

Nice, lightweight walking shoe. I have high arches and this shoe gives adequate support. I ordered a half size up and was glad I did because they seem to run a little short; width seems to be fine. These are definitely my go-to walking shoes.

Really a great shoe but it has taken me 3 pair to find the right size. Thank goodness no postage paid. Always buy my shoes at Zappos.

My feet are horrifically tender. When it comes to new shoes, any kind, I usually have to endure a week or two of blisters and discomfort before they're broken in. These shoes, right out of the box, felt wonderful. I immediately went out and ran 5 miles in them, feeling like I could run another 10. I'm training for a half-marathon, and my old shoes "blew a gasket" (an air pocket went squish) so I was appalled that I'd have to replace them and break in a new pair so close to my race day. Thank you thank you thank you Skechers GOruns for making an incredible, light, comfortable shoe. You'll carry me over the finish line. [Technicals for those interested: Extremely lightly constructed, but not cheaply constructed, if you understand the difference. They may not last years, but I think even after I retire them from running, I'll probably still be able to use them for bumming-around-in shoes. I always have to wear socks (tender feet) but I can totally see these being absolutely comfortable for sock-less runners. They really do encourage mid-foot strike, so if you're a neutral pronator you'll probably love these shoes.]

Extremely light shoes. Good support. Not the best for concrete floors but great for running. I got these as work shoes because the sole is low in the back and they have arch support. My dogs start hurting later in the day, but not like they used to. Overall good shoes.

Don't buy this shoe if you have sensitive heels. The shoe length was fine, but my toes wore through the mesh almost immediately. Overall, big disappointment.

I thought when I first wore these shoes they were great. After a week the heal started to rip. Suppose to be a great running shoe. Maybe so but I bought these for work and I'm on my feed 10 hours a day and they don't work. No arch and made my back, knees and legs to hurt. I will not buy again and have reordered Brooks.
